Chapter 81: The Nobles Way

Despite her having a fianc, named Zest-sama..

(Shes making fun of us, Mom..)

Well, its okay..

I was earnestly caressing their heads as the two of them were in a fit of anger.

Something collapsed behind us..Maybe the intelligence unit soldier.Dont die, ok?

Listening to the girls story, it turns out that:

The elven prince came to the empire for a diplomatic meeting, but he fell in love with Princess Tsubaki at first sight and proposed to her without any warning.

Princess Tsubaki seemed that she wasnt altogether against it, but the Emperor, on the other side, was really troubled.

He couldnt discuss this matter with me, so he went to consult with the Frontier Count; thats when Bea overheard them and went crazy.

Hmm..Its good and bad at the same time.

Well now, lets she why she got so angry in the first place?

I understand.But Bea, Toto, I am not angry at all. Im not even sad, you know?

Really?

(Dad, dont you hate it?)

Their magical power settled down a little.

If you two even disappear from my life, I would get angry and fight with all my strength to get you backHowever, Tsubakis marriage with me was a political one.And I dont really care about it, you know?

If Zest-samasays so, then I ..But still, what about our Dukes Household..

(Even though Tsubaki got along with me and Mom..)

Hmm

While Totos concerned about a completely different thing.

I seized Beas hand and looked her in the eye as I started to speak.

Bea.I will do something about our honor as nobles, so dont worry about it. I am actually more concerned about your feelings. Did you really consent to my marriage to her? Would it have been better for me to get married to Princess Tsubaki?

..The noble Bea consented to it. But I, personally..hatedit.

Her face reddened and she hung her head in shame.

Im such a fool; being spoiled by such a young woman like Bea.

Im sorry Bea, I depended on you too muchI wont ever make you cry again, I promise ..You are the only wife I need, so Im determined to never marry another woman.

.Haha,You are the only wife I needyou say? Its the first time Im hearing something like this.

(Ah! I sure get sleepy after eating sweets.Ill go lie down.)

Toto, you only have to stay silent okay?

Go sleep already!

In this world, I, a Japanese, cant make my opinions known and accepted, even if I do the impossible.

It was precisely because I used to think like that that I ended up depending on Bea

In this case, Ill take measures so that theyll accept it without me overdoing it.

I have to do it solely for the sake of this precious girl in front of me.

That day, I swore to myself once again.

And that I would protect Bea without hesitation, no matter the means I would have to use.

I kissed her and brushed her hair, and she finally smiled for me.

Yes, I will protect this smile

And so, we slowly lay down on top of each other.

(You had fun last night, huh!?)

Toto, who taught you that?

After I punched some holes into Albert, we were walking towards a certain place.

He dared teach Toto unnecessary things.

We.we..so..on.aa..arri.arrive!

Perhaps hes saying that well arrive soon or something.

Such a stupid dog.

Are you really going to use that?

(Dad, I also want to help!)

Both of them approved of my plan.

.I must do it. Theres no other way.

This way the Emperor will also consent and the other nobles wont complain about it.

We arrived at our destination, and were welcomed by her.

I will cancel my engagement to Princess Tsubaki in order to live happily together with Bea.

I was waiting for you, your Excellencies, Duke Zest and Duchess Beatrice..as well as Spirit-sama. Were meeting for the first time. Its a great pleasure!

The woman brought her hand together to her chest and made a praying pose.

Sister, its been a while. I came today with a request.

Oh my, a request from your Excellency..What kind of request?

I am engaged to her Highness, Princess Tsubaki, and I came to you, sister, to hear you preach about it.

I will make sure to use reason with thisjunkysister.

.Will it actually.work?
